When Rio Tinto looked to improve life-to-overhaul of the Cummins QSK60 engine powering its Komatsu WA1200-6 loaders, oil filtration efficiency emerged as the key. Rio Tinto has nine 220-tonne, 1892 hp WA1200-6 loaders operating in its vast iron ore operations in the Pilbara, Western Australia, where production reached 330 million tonnes from 16 mines in 2017.

Eliminating the Obstacles to Longer Engine Life “We operate in a fiercely competitive global business and we will be run down by our competition if we don’t stay ahead of the innovation curve.” These unambiguous words from Chris Salisbury, chief executive of Rio Tinto’s iron ore business, focus precisely on the mining giant’s strategy – a relentless drive for improved productivity, with innovation and technology at the core.

A fleet of Cummins-powered Hitachi excavators is pivotal to the success of the $10 billion Roy Hill iron ore mining operations in the red expanse of Western Australia’s Pilbara region. The first iron ore from Roy Hill was shipped in December 2015, and in September 2017 the mine hit a significant milestone, reaching its targeted run rate capacity of 55 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) for the first time. A reliable excavator fleet is the backbone of any mining operation and by the end of 2018 a total of 14 Hitachi diggers will be at the Roy Hill ore face.

Anglo American mines everything from iron ore to copper, platinum and diamonds across three continents. The one thing they share is a total commitment to using Cummins engines in virtually all their equipment from haul trucks to electrical generators. In this video featuring their Brazilian site, Cummins and local distributor DCML match Anglo American’s commitment with unparalleled support, generating opportunities to reduce costs and increase efficiency. See how the 100% commitment between all three partners reduces variability, lowers costs and increases efficiency.
